Cues


This is an important step in understanding sensemaking.

"Extracted cues are simple, familiar structures that are seeds from which people develop a larger sense of what may be occurring" (Weick, 1995, p. 50). "The importance of these cues in organizational analysis was recognized by Smircich and Morgan (1982) when they said that 'leadership lies in large part in generating a point of reference, against which a feeling of organization and direction can emerge' (p. 258)" (Weick, 1995, p. 50).
